HHI Adventure

The location was very convenient for going to beach and activities outside of the plantation. Overall, the experience was excellent.I have some recommendations for improvement:1. Pool should be heated2. Need to provide beach chairs3. Refrigerator right door does not open completely4. Refrigerator does not provide ice or water5. Bikes are in very bad condition, one is not ridable

Not returning to the USA

Property was excellent but unfortunately we will not be returning to the USA as the political situation and disrespect to Canadians has forced us to plan other opportunities in travel.

Great house

We love this house! This is the second time that our two families have rented this property. It has plenty of space and is close to the beach. It is also walking distance to restaurants and the general store. Our kids favorite part is the pool and the pool basketball hoop.

Wonderful family vacation

We were 7 adults and 1 10yo. The house is beautiful and in a fabulous location. Super easy beach access. The four stars on cleanliness was only bc the patio area had uninviting chair cushions ( not what is shown in photos) that were constantly damp so we couldn’t sit on them. Otherwise the house was sparkling. We loved the beach gear and adventure tickets we got through the management company.

Nice family getaway

We had a good experience with this home and the property management company. Everything was as described, check in and check out process was a breeze and best of all the location was fantastic. Short walk to the beach and also a quick drive to many shops and restaurants. Overall very pleased with our stay.

Beautiful home close to beach

The home has been recently renovated and it is really nice. The house makes good use of its square footage because the home has several rooms with lots of beds that would easily allow for 12-14 residents. The kitchen has everything you can image for cooking or barbecuing on the grill, which is adjacent to the pool. This is a really nice home within a 3 minute walk to the beach in the beautiful Palmetto Dunes area. My family and I highly recommend and would consider staying at again upon our return to the island.

Mixed Feelings

We have been coming to HHI for 20 years with our kids. This year we brought along with us our kids spouses and our first granddaughter. We love this island. This is the first time we have stayed in a VRBO home in Palmetto Dunes. The location was perfect. The home was a little disappointing. The online photos made it look as much better than it really was inside. Little musty smelling and the bathrooms are old and worn out. The kitchen is poorly stocked with things that barely work. The pool is VERY shaded and cold. It stayed full of trash and debris. The walk to the beach is easy which was a winner for us. We needed a pet friendly place so this was a winner for that reason too. Having 4 bikes included was a plus as well. We will be back to HHI but not this rental.

Great house but no information/awful parking pass situation

We had a wedding party staying at this house, reserved for 15 people. We were only given TWO parking passes with our reservation, despite the fact that reservation included the whole party. We were not told that we'd need to purchase additional parking passes at $25 a piece, and specific types of passes for the makeup artist and photographer who came to the house for a few hours. We ended up spending almost an additional $200 on passes, and interrogated by the Lt. of security, which seems insane considering we told the property owners how many people would be at this home for a wedding weekend. It made for a legitimate nightmare on the wedding day. Someone also came to clean the pool on Saturday at noon, which seems like an awful time to do something like that during someone's reservation. Wanted to enjoy this place but the pass situation at Palmetto made the whole experience sour. Will not stay in a gated community on Hilton Head ever again.

Ok but not perfect

Location was very nice, a short walk to beach. Downstair’s rooms in house were on the small side. Great bunk room for kids. Upstairs was hot though. HVAC dampener needs attention. King mattress was worn out-felt like I was sleeping in a trough-typical for early version temperpedic mattresses. Kitchen was small and difficult for more than one person to work in there. Knives were dull. Driveway could only accommodate two cars comfortably, three will work if you are careful. The backyard was nice and shady and private. The downside was the tree debris that fell including nut shells that were very sharp on bare feet. The pool was nice but got covered in debris. I elected to clean in the morning and afternoon, took about 30 min each cleaning. The debris ended up trashing all of the outdoor table and furniture so sitting and using was tough. The cushions were pretty old looking and not inviting. The construction noise of a neighbor having a roof installed took away from the ambiance. The family room sitting area was not as big and was broken into two areas. It didn’t work well for our family. The coffee tables were not infant friendly as they had sharp edges or hard corners. Amenities were nice including a big cooler and bikes. The above is not meant to be a bad review, they are just a few nitpicks. Overall, everyone had a good time which is what counts.

Well managed pet friendly home

The property management was excellent. Check in/out was seamless and entirely online. All of the information that we needed was readily and handily available. We found an issue on arrival and the company immediately resolved, taking into consideration our schedule. The house itself is fine and spacious but I wouldn’t try to fit to capacity. We only had five max and it was fine. Kitchen well equipped. Beds not super comfortable but ok. Upstairs stays noticeably warmer but we all fit downstairs. Pool is really nice feature and we stayed out there often. You can hear everybody in neighboring houses which detracted from the experience. Very short walk to beach which made it easy to go back and forth multiple times a day. We rented chairs from shore-beach rather than hauling our own. All in all, a comfortable pet-friendly home close to a great stretch of beach with a great management team.
